Christmas Decorating Idea #1 Go for a walk and gather evergreen boughs and branches to fill your home with a festive scent. Use them to decorate the mantle, staircase, and front door. Christmas Decorating Idea #2 Consider a tree adorned only in white lights or completely bare - marvel at nature's perfection. Christmas Decorating Idea #3
Group large pinecones in threesomes bound with ribbon. Hang them from doorknobs, stair banisters, or in windows. Christmas Decorating Idea #4 Spread cheer in unexpected places, like the powder room. String white lights around the mirror and hang festive ornaments from the chandelier. Christmas Decorating Idea #5 Keep a Polaroid handy and snap family and friends as they enter, or posed near the tree. Post pictures on a bulletin board that is covered with pretty gift-wrap.
Christmas Decorating Idea #6 Rhinestone brooches and clip earrings will enhance your Christmas decor. Use them to add sparkle to any table. Christmas Decorating Idea #7 Nuts are traditional holiday favorites - use them decoratively. Hang walnut clusters from pretty bows and attach to boughs throughout the house. Christmas Decorating Idea #8 Let school-age children decorate the tree all by themselves. Offer paper, scissors, glue, felt, popcorn, cranberries and ribbons.

Christmas Decorating Idea #9 Fill beautiful bowls with oranges, pomegranates, or apples. Christmas Decorating Idea #10 Create a tree of life - invite friends and family to contribute one ornament each to your tree. Don't worry about "matching" - instead celebrate the uniqueness.

You'll find plenty of Christmas decorating ideas in…Christmas Details - This has to be one of the most beautful craft ideas books I have ever seen.Mary Norden has a very contemporary eye for detail, there is a touch of Martha Stewartness about the presentation but without any fussiness (Nordern suggests tapered candles in a galvanised bucket, but she never suggests you make the candles yourself!).
